About this ebook

Nadia’s life as a model is practically picture perfect until the day werebear hunters send her running. She lands in Safe Harbor with the Ouellette clan, but Nadia knows better than to call yet another place home, and she settles in to do the one thing she knows best, fight.

Izzy’s rescue from drowning set her on a course for a fresh start as woman capable of love and compassion. Her savior and clan alpha, Jean Luc Ouellette sealed their true mate bond to break the bi-polar curse, but when Izzy finds out she’s pregnant and experiences mood swings that are reminiscent of her past, she fears for her children. 

Kelsey moves to Safe Harbor for an internship at the most prestigious boat-building company on the East Coast, Ouellette Yachts. She finds more than the start of a brilliant career when she falls for Val and discovers a family secret that opens up a whole new world. But as the truth comes out a disastrous mistake threatens to take it all away.

Tally spends her days tending to the needs of the Ouellette clan as their medicine woman, and she enjoys the perks of hunky werebear coming to visit her daily. Especially one named Marcel. But an evil force has plans for Tally that make her chance at love a near impossibility.

The author immediately draws you into the story from the first line leaving you totally intrigued and turning pages to learn what comes next. The characters are certainly praise-worthy and come alive with breathtaking vivid scene descriptions and witty dialogue. I was ecstatic to see characters I adored in this story as well as new ones added to the mix. This adventure had me glued to my sofa till the end, and I cannot wait for the next book; a most exhilarating and gratifying read. If you treasure shifter stories this is certainly a terrific book for your library. {I was gifted a copy of this book and this is my honest review}. In the world of shifter romance, the possibilities are endless and always fascinating. Without reservations, I recommend this book.

Can I make that 50 stars? This is so freaking good! I was such a fan of both series, Called and Tempted by the Bears. This third series not only brings back some of those favorite characters, but the new ones are outstanding. This first book introduces us to four ladies, Nadia—a polar bear brought from Alaska to the East to resettle with their clan that was dying out. She thinks she is joining her husband who went ahead with the first group—however, while they married they were not true mates, and he met his true mate—grounds for an automatic divorce. Since then she has been made a high powered model representing the clan Vodka production—until the hunters learn what she is and come after her. Two) Izzy, another polar who wanted to commit suicide in the last series because of an untreatable bipolar curse—finally broken by her true mate, the alpha of Ouellette clan. Three) Kelsey a college grad with an internship into Izzy's mate's ship building company. She learns some very interesting things and meets a very interesting guy—but I'm not telling more you NEED to read about this one. Then there is sweet, human, witch, Tally. She too is a new character like Kelsey. She is a strong witch training Izzy. There is some cuteness about Tally and some trials ahead. The story-line is absolutely riveting. Hunters, lost mates & parents, unknown relatives, heartbreak, new love and on and on. There is a problem with the story—I WANT MORE. However, I'll wait because Ms. Vaughn never disappoints and I'll wait for her to brew her magic with the next one. Hopefully, it won't be too long. Do not miss this steamy, yummy story. I cannot make a stronger recommend. I was provided an ARC for an honest review.

Four women head to Safe Harbor, Canada. (Home of the Ouellette werebear clan.) A human clan medicine woman, Tally and the polar bear prima of the clan, Izzy, live there. Kelsey, a human student, is there for an internship at the boat-building school. Nadia, a polar bear in trouble, is there for protection. Whose? Gripping, fast paced paranormal adventure! The past and present merge, with page turning, well written drama and entertainment! Book free for honest review.
